92. Whitney Canyon Park

This Park is located at the end of Newhall Ave, just below the Park & Ride.

On the second day of Spring Break, we took it easy; I made "thin pancakes" or crepes for breakfast, which is probably Christina's favorite! Allan watched the Lakers game and then we went for a nice hike. It was getting late and the "waterfall trail" at Placerita Canyon Park is a 2 1/2 hours hike. So we decided to try out a new trail: the Whitney Canyon Trail.

Put the camera on a fallen tree trunk and set up the timer... Voila!

Nicholas has been to Whitney Canyon Park with his Cross Country Team; they trained there by running on the "Beast Trail" which is mostly uphill. But from searching the internet, I found out that there is another trail there and that it also leads to a waterfall. So we tried it out...
It was a pretty easy hike and it crosses the creek many times. We didn't get to the waterfall though. As I said earlier, it was getting late. So after walking about 45 minutes, we decided to turn around. The kids were disappointed (especially Anthony). But we promised them that next time we will start early and will hike all the way to the waterfall. We might even try again sometimes this week... Who knows?
